A number of technical reports were written during the development of
LAPACK and published as LAPACK Working Notes, initially by Argonne
National Laboratory and later by the University of Tennessee. Many of
these reports later appeared as journal articles. Most of these working
notes are available in pdf and postscript form from netlib.
